22. Ball Ball

"You know me?" Gu Ziyan naturally didn't know about the bend in Lin Chuxia's heart, he looked over with a little surprise in his eyes, but was glanced at by Lin Chuxia inexplicably.

Lin Chuxia was very unconvinced, what is the merit of this Gu Ziyan? The spiritual root is only seven layers, and it is simply mediocre in the Taihua Immortal Sect; In terms of appearance, except for the special white hair, there is nothing outstanding, and even the intelligence and agility cannot be seen at all, and even a little too dull.

If Gu Ziyan knew that his handsome face was evaluated like this, he would definitely be so angry that he wanted to beat someone.

"Hmph." When he spoke again, Lin Chuxia's tone obviously had a sour taste, "Of course I know, the only disciple of Sword Immortal Moji, who in the Taihua Immortal Sect doesn't know?" There are countless inner disciples who are stronger than you, and I really can't figure out how Uncle Mo Ji could choose you. ”

Lin Chuxia said this very politely, so Gu Ziyan didn't plan to be polite to her, besides, Gu Ziyan and her parents and even ancestors had a life-and-death enmity. Then, Gu Ziyan smiled indifferently: "Why don't you ask my master yourself?" However, Master has never liked to be disturbed by outsiders, and it would not be good if you were kicked out. ”

An outsider on the left, an outsider on the right, Gu Ziyan's words seem euphemistic, but in Lin Chuxia's eyes, it is definitely sarcastic! Ironically, she couldn't even see Mo Ji's face, and by the way, a master, Lin Chuxia, who was angry, almost trembled.

This is red. Bare. Naked show off!

Seeing that Lin Chuxia was speechless for a while, Gu Ziyan didn't want to stay here longer, so he picked up the cat on the ground and said, "I'm just here to deliver a letter to the elder today, so it's inconvenient to stay longer." I'll take the cat first, this is wound medicine, I hope your injury can heal soon. ”

The last sentence was so perfunctory that even he couldn't believe it.

Taking out a box of commonly used wound medicine from the storage bag uniformly distributed by the inner disciples, Gu Ziyan didn't care about Lin Chuxia's expression, and directly stuffed it into her hand, and then turned around and left with the cat in his arms in his arms, leaving no cloud behind.

It's also strange to say, this cat is obviously so fierce to Lin Chuxia, but it is very docile to be picked up by Gu Ziyan at this time. even took the initiative to poke out his head and rub his palm, squinted his glass-bead-like eyes, and meowed softly as if he was coquettish.

While walking, Gu Ziyan reached out and touched the snow-white fluff of the cat in his arms. As he expected, he saw several silver patterns on the cat's back.

This is not an ordinary cat, but a silver-veined civet cat that is on the list of "Strange Beasts" released by Tianshu Mountain. This tanuki is said to be able to understand human speech, understand people's hearts, and is extremely sensitive to the affairs of ghosts and spirits.

Holding the cat's front paws, Gu Ziyan touched a small bell tied with red silk. This time, he finally fully confirmed: "Ball ball? ”

The cat wagged its tail lazily and did not deny the name.

"I didn't expect it to be you." Gu Ziyan shook the claws of the ball in his hand, and there was a happy smile on his face that he had never had since he was reborn.

This silver-veined tanuki was a gift from one of his subordinates when he first came to the world in the book.

Among the litters of kittens that were sent up, Gu Ziyan picked the most pleasing one to keep, and the others were distributed to the disciples around him. At first, in order to distinguish several kittens that looked similar, Gu Ziyan also specially hung a bell for it.

As for why it is called Qiuqiu's casual name, it is probably just a whim of Gu Ziyan......

Gu Ziyan has been in the Cangming Sect for ten years, and Qiuqiu has also accompanied him for ten years.

At that time, under the strict control of the system, Gu Ziyan's situation was much more difficult than now. But he can't say anything, and once his true thoughts are known to anyone around him, he will inevitably be judged to affect the plot. Although most of the time, he was either in retreat or Qiuqiu running around in the Cangming Sect, this kitten who was said to be able to understand people's hearts was probably the only one who could say something from Gu Ziyan's heart at that time.

After a hundred years, being able to meet this cat again in a completely different location was an extra surprise for Gu Ziyan.

"It's a pity that you can't speak, otherwise I'd love to hear from you about how you've been doing all these years." Holding Qiuqiu back to the original road, even if Gu Ziyan deliberately lowered his voice, he couldn't suppress the joy in his words, "By the way, how did you get here until you died?" If I hadn't run into it, you might have been turned into a pot of cat soup. ”

And Qiuqiu just looked at Gu Ziyan with disgust, and then curled up on his chest extremely skillfully, lazily shaking his beautiful fluffy tail.

When he walked to the top of Longwei Peak and was about to come to the side door of the backyard, Qiuqiu suddenly scratched his right shoulder.

Gu Ziyan stopped, it was unusually quiet in this neighborhood, and it was strange that he couldn't see any disciples in broad daylight. So he lowered his head and looked at Qiuqiu: "You want to sue me, where should we go from?" ”

Qiuqiu moved and jumped out of Gu Ziyan's arms.

Then it trots all the way around the side door in the backyard. jumped onto the wall from another corner, stood on the eaves and whispered to Gu Ziyan, as if calling him up.

Gu Ziyan also raised his breath and jumped onto the wall, and when he stood in the same place as Qiuqiu, he suddenly smelled a trace of blood in the air.

Equally anomalous to this strangeness was a barrier that rose from the inside of the wall. The spell used in this enchantment clearly did not belong to the Immortal Dao, and it enveloped the entire backyard, making it almost impossible to detect anything unusual from a distance.

Qiuqiu suddenly stretched out his snow-white claws and headed towards the transparent barrier.

"Ball--!" Before he could say the words of stopping, the second half of Gu Ziyan's words were swallowed back into his throat. Because a half-human-high gap has formed in the corner of the barrier.

[Triggers the hidden "Mystery of Dragon's Tail Peak.] 】

[This task is a puzzle solving task, and the difficulty is high.] The truth needs to be elicited within a certain period of time, otherwise it will lead to extremely strict consequences, please be sure to take it seriously! 】

After a few seconds of surprise, Gu Ziyan regained his composure. This time, he had a long memory, and first asked the system: "How many routes are there for this mission?" ”

[For this hidden mission, there are currently only two routes to choose - "Enter Exploration" or "Leave Directly".] 】

"Oh, can I just leave?" Gu Ziyan looked at the strange situation in front of him, and really didn't want to get involved in it at all.

[According to the system's calculations, there is a 99% chance that the "Leave Directly" route guide task will fail, and a 50% chance of triggering a death event.] Are you sure you want to leave now? 】

“…… Talk nonsense! You might as well tell me that I can only go in and investigate. Gu Ziyan pursed his lips, hugged the ball at his feet, and jumped off the eaves without looking back.

This system really doesn't have the most pits, only more pits.

If he forgets to ask today, according to his character, he will leave directly, if he really wants to go that far, Gu Ziyan has no place to cry. Having said that, even sending a letter can encounter this kind of life-threatening hidden mission, and no one else has a black face.

[Officially enter the initial event of "The Mystery of Dragon's Tail Peak", obtain the status of exploration, and will not be discovered by anyone.] 】

With this BUFF that thought of stealth, Gu Ziyan cautiously walked towards the only residence in the backyard. The closer he got to that row of rooms, the more intense the smell of blood that Gu Ziyan smelled on the tip of his nose.

When he walked to the steps of the room, Gu Ziyan saw that there were still fresh blood stains, oozing out little by little from the cracks in the hidden door.

There seemed to be a conversation between a man and a woman inside.

"Why are you ......" The first voice heard was a young man's voice, but it was obviously not Xuanjing's voice.

Before the male voice could finish speaking, another female voice mixed with sobs interrupted it directly: "If only one person between you and him can survive, then this is my choice." ”

“…… This place can't hold me anymore, so take me away! ”

Gu Ziyan felt as if he had discovered something very unusual.
